I have electrolytes and water in the barrel, my pond went dry!
They lick the salt "some" and seem to prefer the salt and mineral crushed into the dirt. I will get a granular next time at the feed store since they where out last time I went.
That is Alfalfa Eddie, good call. They haven't taken to it at all as they have in west TX. What they have been taking good is all the 16% deer pellets and corn mix I give out. Feeding around 5#'s a day in 2 places.
